NFL Week 15 odds: Vikings open as big favorite over Bengals

The Cincinnati Bengals will be big underdogs in Week 15.

After back-to-back losses — the latest being a 33-7 shellacking by the Chicago Bears — Cincinnati is currently a 10-point underdog versus the Minnesota Vikings next Sunday, according to BookMaker.eu.

Part of that is due to the Vikings being one of the NFL’s best teams this season at 10-3. Another big reason the Bengals are that big of an underdog is this game is at Minnesota.

That’s significant, as the Bengals have struggled mightily on the road over the last two seasons. Cincinnati is 2-4 on the road this season and 4-10 over the last two seasons. Two of those wins are over the Browns, who are now 1-28 since the start of last season.

Needless to say, there’s not much hope that the Bengals can beat Mike Zimmer’s Vikings at Minnesota in Week 15. This is easily the most difficult of the Bengals’ three remaining games, which include a home matchup with the Detroit Lions, followed by a road clash with the Baltimore Ravens.

Heck, the Bengals will probably be underdogs in all three games.
